Systaspes
Weeks, 1905
is a valid genus
Inspection of
Pyrgini
trees (
Fig. 7
) reveals that
Antigonus corrosus
Mabille, 1878
, the
type
species of
Systaspes
Weeks, 1905
, is a sister to
Celotes
Godman and Salvin, [1899]
(
type
species
Pholisora nessus
Edwards, 1877
) and is not monophyletic with
Antigonus
Hübner, [1819]
(
type
species
Urbanus erosus
Hübner, [1812]
). Therefore, we reinstate the genus
Systaspes
and the combination
Systaspes corrosus
.
